The "greatest healthcare system in the world" is about social control, not treating illness
It's about making sure the poor work for insurance for themselves and their families instead of doing other things, providing opportunities to blame the victim (Such as STDs, being too poor to afford treatment, or saying people with preexisting conditions are just scammers), and it's about creating and polarizing differences between class, race, and gender... Such as a rich person being able to pencil in an elective operation while a poor person getting a vital surgery (If the insurance clears), turning the drugs white people in the suburbs use into a "medical problem" as opposed to apparently needing a militarized response for minorities in the inner city and the drugs they use, and policing the bodies and affairs of women and the clearest example of that can be seen with their reproductive freedoms.
The ACA honestly mitigated some of this, but controllers got to control. Trumpcare will make up for the social control they lost, look at some of the things they say regarding preexisting conditions for example, they are thirsty to regain this control.
All I can say is bone up on preventative medicine, wash your hands, and stay hydrated... People will suffer and people will die so the top can regain their lost power through Trumpcare.
